U.S. Senator Mike Braun released the following statement Thursday regarding President Biden’s announced executive orders on gun control:
“President Biden’s executive order on gun control is so extreme that even the Democrat-controlled Senate would never pass this bill that is a blatant assault on our Second Amendment rights.
“We all want to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and the dangerously mentally ill, but that can’t come at the expense of infringing on the rights of law-abiding citizens like a federal assault weapons ban – a one-size-fits-all approach from the federal government rarely works on any issue, including the Second Amendment. Other states should consider real solutions like Indiana’s red flag law, with proper due process protections.”
